This St. Augustine food and wine tour gets visitors genuinely excited, and it's clear the guides make all the difference. People rave about how Rob, Kimberly, René, and Mandy don't just shuttle you around on a golf cart – they bring the city's history alive while introducing you to restaurants you'd never discover on your own. The experience hits that sweet spot of being educational without feeling like a history lecture, with guides who know when to share fascinating tidbits and when to just let you enjoy the moment. Several reviewers mention celebrating birthdays, and the staff consistently goes out of their way to make those occasions special with thoughtful surprises. What really stands out is the quality and variety of the food and drink at each stop. You'll hit four different locations, and reviewers emphasize you'll leave genuinely full – this isn't one of those tours with tiny portions. The wine pours generously (sometimes more than people can finish), and everything arrives freshly prepared right when your group shows up. That precision requires a tight schedule, though, so take the advice seriously about arriving 15 minutes early. One couple learned this the hard way by being just a minute late, though their guide Mandy graciously helped them catch up. Whether you're visiting for the first time or you're a local looking to see your city differently, this seems to be a consistently wonderful experience that people call the highlight of their trip.
We took the Tasting Tour with Judi with an “i” She was great! No wonder she was voted Best Tour Guide. She picked us up at the church. Another couple and their grandson joined us. It wasnt long before Judi had us laughing together like old friends. My daughter and I would definitely recommend the Tasting Tours and especially Judi (with an i) The food was great, the wine stop was informative; a great way to see St Augustine. Next time, we will take this tour again. It was well worth it! Thank you Judi (with an i)💋
